Abstract

Access to healthcare remains a major challenge, especially in developing countries, due to limited infrastructure, medical personnel, and funding. In 2017, the World Bank and WHO reported that nearly half of the world's population struggled to access healthcare due to high costs, including in Indonesia. This study examines the factors influencing BPJS Kesehatan participation and its impact on healthcare utilization. Using probit models and regression techniques, the analysis highlights key determinants, including residence, age, marital status, healthcare utilization, sanitation, household size, income, agricultural participation, health conditions, and employment status. The study also evaluates the effect of insurance coverage on healthcare visits using Negative Binomial Regression and IV Poisson GMM methods. Results indicate that while insurance increases healthcare utilization, factors such as geographic location and out-of-pocket expenses influence access. Findings suggest the need for targeted policies to improve insurance accessibility, particularly in rural areas, and address economic barriers. Limitations include the cross-sectional nature of the data and potential biases in self-reported information. Future research should explore longitudinal data and additional variables to better understand health insurance dynamics.

Abstract

Financial stability is an important part of economic growth. The main objective in this study is to analyze how financial stability (using Bank Z-Score) affects economic growth. The data used is country-level data from five selected countries in the Southeast Asia region (Indonesia, Cambodia, Malaysia, Philippines, and Thailand) for the period 2011 – 2021 using the ARDL model approach. The results of this study found strong evidence that financial stability (banking stability) has a positive effect on economic growth for countries in the Southeast Asian region. This study also reveals that it is not only financial stability variables that are important to achieve economic growth but investment and trade openness must also be increased if the country want to achieve the expected economic growth. The positive relationship between investment and trade openness implies that investment and trade openness can be beneficial to economic growth. .

Abstract

The trajectory of economic expansion in West Java is contingent upon three cardinal determinants: household consumption, capital investment, and fiscal expenditure. Consumption propels aggregate demand for commodities and services, investment augments productive capacity, while governmental disbursement, particularly directed toward infrastructural advancement and social initiatives, engenders employment prospects and elevates communal welfare. This paper seeks to scrutinize the ramifications of consumption, investment, and fiscal spending on the economic progression of West Java Province throughout the 2020–2024 interval. The investigation employs a Secondary Data Analysis (SDA) paradigm underpinned by a quantitative orientation. The empirical sample encompasses 27 regencies/municipalities within West Java Province, delineated through a saturated sampling modality. The collated data were subjected to panel data econometric techniques utilizing the EViews 12 platform. Findings shed light that consumption, investment, and governmental expenditure exert discernible influences upon economic growth, albeit with heterogeneous magnitudes across territorial units. In conclusion, these three variables manifest statistically significant bearings on West Java’s economic development, though the intensity of their effects diverges among regions.

Abstract

Poverty remains an obstacle that continues to disrupt social welfare among communities on the island of Sulawesi. The objectives of this study are to determine the long-term effects of economic growth, investment and unemployment on poverty in Sulawesi Island; to examine the short-term effects in each province in Sulawesi Island; to determine whether there is an error correction adjustment mechanism; and to determine whether there is a causal relationship between economic growth and poverty. This study uses the Secondary Data Analysis (SDA) method with a quantitative correlational approach and uses the ARDL Panel analysis model. The study's outcomes reveal that economic growth, investment, and unemployment significantly reduce poverty across Sulawesi Island when examined over extended periods. Short-term provincial variations emerge as follows: North Sulawesi and Central Sulawesi experience positive effects from all three factors. In South Sulawesi and Southeast Sulawesi, economic growth and investment demonstrate negative effects, whereas unemployment shows positive effects. Gorontalo exhibits positive effects from economic growth and unemployment, though investment produces negative effects. West Sulawesi presents a mixed pattern, with economic growth reducing poverty while investment and unemployment increase it. Although error correction adjustments function across all provinces, only West Sulawesi demonstrates statistically significant adjustment processes. There is a causal relationship between economic growth and poverty.  Equitable economic growth and investment can certainly be felt by the poor, thus opening up opportunities to increase productivity, and vice versa. Meanwhile, unemployment certainly has a significant impact on poverty.

Abstract

Economic growth plays an important role in the development of a country and the welfare of its people. One indicator that influences economic growth is the unemployment rate, which can reduce productivity and cause social problems. This research aims to analyze the long-term and short-term effects of unemployment rate, investment, inflation, and Human Development Index (HDI) on economic growth in the provinces of Java Island, as well as to assess the long-term adjustment mechanism (Error Correction Term) in each region. This research uses secondary data analysis with a correlational quantitative approach. The research results show that in the long term, unemployment rate, investment, inflation, and HDI have a significant influence on economic growth. In the short term, the influence between variables differs across provinces: East Java shows significant influence from all variables, Central Java is influenced by unemployment rate, inflation, and HDI, while DKI Jakarta is influenced by unemployment rate and investment. Banten, West Java, and DIY do not show significant influence in the short term. The long-term adjustment mechanism (Error Correction Term) is significant in East Java, but not significant in other provinces. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that macroeconomic variables have different influences across regions in Java Island, with East Java as the province that is most consistent in achieving long-term economic growth stability. The results of this research provide important implications for the formulation of region-based economic policies that consider the differences in characteristics and economic responses across provinces.
